heartrate

Went to my appointment and the baby heartbeat was 182. They say it's a little high. I'm so worried. There just so much with this pregnancy I don't know what to do...

A normal fetal heart rate is between 100-200 bpm. When I first heard my sons at 10 weeks it was 178 bpm. It's perfectly normal and honestly a good thing. It means your baby has a strong heart :)
